I was young and went to Show World as much as possible. Went out with a chick from there name Yasmine.
Oh and the Mets.
Remember when you took the Lincoln Tunnel into the city and their was this huge building mural of Gooden.
I definitely remember. I used to play little league in Edison, NJ. Used to take the Lincoln home every week.
Excellent. You have to be a Mets, Red Sox or die hard baseball fan to understand.
I'm a Yankee fan and so far this is outstanding
If you a true sports fan
You gotta appreciate all this.
True. That they were able to get through the post season with the ring is a great story.
It's this new generation that can't appreciate greatness if they don't like the uniform
Or if you don't win a championship every year.
These stories are to be and should be appreciated be all true sports fans
These are the stuff of legend
I had totally forgotten that Mookie got hit in the face in practice and was out with an eye injury in 86....then ended up being in the key at bat (not taking away from Mitchell, Carter and Knight) in game 6.
How far do you go back as a Yankee fan? I thought the three home runs by Reggie Jackson was powerful. The Chris Chambliss walk off homerun. The one game play off with yhe 25-3 Guidry. All good memories.
However my pops hated the Yankess.
I'd like to know how many foul balls Mookie hit to stay alive. Many forget that.
Shit, he's one of my favorite players of all time.......in any sport. And the greatest 3rd baseman of all time. Offensively and defensively. Stats don't lie. With that said I'll admit his one of the dumbest human beings on the face of the earth.
Yeah man....quite a few.. 6 altogether but 4 before the wild pitch. It was a battle of wills and Stanley lost.
I think to this day that Mookie would have reached first even if Buckner would have not missed the ball. Mook would have beaten Stanley to the bag.
My favorite 1986 Met memory, at this moment I knew Kevin Mitchell wasn’t to be fucked with.
They were in the World Series several yrs agoyep cause the mets are a joke now
They were in the World Series several yrs ago
That was fuckin hilarious bad influence on Doc & Straw. Even as a kid I found that ridiculous.Fucking Cashen traded Mitchell because he thought he'd be bad influence on Strawberry and Gooden.
He hit 47 homeruns in 89.
